JWST observations of stellar occultations by solar system bodies and rings
P. Santos-Sanz, R. G. French, N. Pinilla-Alonso +14
In this paper we investigate the opportunities provided by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) for significant scientific advances in the study of solar system bodies and rings u…
OSSOS II: A Sharp Transition in the Absolute Magnitude Distribution of the Kuiper Belt's Scattering Population
C. Shankman, J. J. Kavelaars, B. J. Gladman +8
We measure the absolute magnitude, , distribution, of the scattering Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) as a proxy for their size-frequency distribution. We…
Main-belt comets: sublimation-driven activity in the asteroid belt
Henry H. Hsieh
Our knowledge of main-belt comets (MBCs), which exhibit comet-like activity likely due to the sublimation of volatile ices, yet orbit in the main asteroid belt, has increased great…
The Outer Solar System Origins Survey: I. Design and First-Quarter Discoveries
Michele T. Bannister, J. J. Kavelaars, Jean-Marc Petit +36
We report the discovery, tracking and detection circumstances for 85 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the first 42 deg of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS). Th…
The Reactivation of Main-Belt Comet 324P/La Sagra (P/2010 R2)
Henry H. Hsieh, Scott S. Sheppard
We present observations using the Baade Magellan and Canada-France-Hawaii telescopes showing that main-belt comet 324P/La Sagra, formerly known as P/2010 R2, has become active agai…
Near-IR Polarized Scattered Light Imagery of the DoAr 28 Transitional Disk
Evan A. Rich, John P. Wisniewski, Satoshi Mayama +52
We present the first spatially resolved polarized scattered light H-band detection of the DoAr 28 transitional disk. Our two epochs of imagery detect the scattered light disk from…
